Both Tudor Oyster-Prince Submariner "non crown guard" references 7922 and 7924 were launched in 1958, shortly after the celebrated and better known Rolex reference 6538. Whereas reference 7922 was water-resistant to 110 m. (330ft) and fitted with the smaller crown, reference 7924, such as the present watch, was equipped with a larger case and crown in order to withstand water pressure to 220 m. (660 ft).

Based on the inscription of the back of the present watch, it was supplied to the Armada de la Republica Argentina or ARA, Navy of the Argentine Republic.
